Resilience, Vulnerability & Shame

 

Every human being yearns to belong and be loved.  Sometimes we stray from being our authentic selves into trying to fit in; by being perfect, being strong and being there for everyone else. 

But over time this makes us miserable, isolated, and even physically ill. 

So how do you allow ourself to be our honest and vulnerable ?  What happens to you when you experience the shame of not being good enough ? How do you learn resilience, so you can pick yourself up and stay on your true path ?  

Learn how to combat the feeling of shame of not being good enough, and resolve to give your best try at whatever you really yearn to achieve. Learn to live with the possibility that you might not succeed, but the knowledge that you tried your very best, is totally good enough.

Vulnerability is not winning or losing; it’s having the courage to show up and be seen when we have no control over the outcome… it’s not weakness; it’s our greatest measure of courage.
